Don't Let Diabetes Get
Its Hands on Your Feet
Millions
of people have diabetes, and more are diagnosed with it every day. Its implications
vary from person to person, depending on many factors, including one’s age and
overall health, the severity of the condition, and whether it can be controlled
by diet, or if medication is required. However, all diabetics must monitor
their blood sugar, and their diets, as their bodies can’t produce, or properly use,
insulin.
Meticulous
foot care is also essential, as even minor wounds can have serious consequences,
as can diabetic neuropathy - burning, tingling, and numbness in the
feet - if it progresses. If you have diabetes, come see us for a thorough examination and a personalized,
easy-to-follow foot care plan that will help keep diabetes from getting its
hands on your feet!
